We receive a high volume of applications and want to give everybody a chance to come in and meet us, we begin to filter the weaker candidates out after meeting them and giving them a chance to sit down face to face with us. Hence this is a shorter and more informal, friendly conversation where we introduce ourselves and share who we are with you, so we can both determine if this is a good match and worth taking forward onto a second stage and more in-depth interview.
We are glad that the interview process provided you with a wealth of information to help you make a well-informed decision about your possible future working in the environment you were shown.
